Audiovisual installation - combination of moving fabrics, light and audio synchronisations

Inspired by his album "Vrij van Dromen" (De Vlieger / Job Jobse, 2020), Elias Mazian (DJ and producer) and his friend Boris Acket (audiovisual artist) were looking for a way to artistically present textile materials as repeating, flowing forms and in motion. The kinetic, 30 m long audiovisual installation was realised with the help of numerous motors and fans, which are intended to represent the lightness of the natural movements of the textile on stage – a laser fabric by Gerriets.

In collaboration with the creative designers and engineers of Lumus Instruments and the spatial designer Toon Rooijmans, the project quickly evolved from the original idea of a "backdrop" into a poetic piece. The parameters are controllable, but each synthetically generated wave behaves individually - like a vertical water surface that transforms into different weather conditions and appearances through movement, light and sound.

In this way EINDER aims to make people think about the way humans control nature - how we look at it and how we always want to control something. EINDER is a hypnotic work that never once behaves in the same way and seems to be alive in every space it occupies.
